And Then Came The Bad Years Lyrics

Artist: Bill Anderson
Album: Where Have All Our Heroes Gone

I remember how once upon a timeBefore I could even phone you I had to borrow a dimeI had nothing to give you and still you said you'd be mineLord these were the good yearsA big night on the town for us used to beJust two glasses of wine on our first anniversaryOh I know you could have more but you stuck by me those were the sweet yearsBut I wasn't happy though you were complainedI wanted to give you more than just my nameI wanted to buy you not wine but champagne and then came the hard yearsCause I started working harder and longer than ever beforeJust to buy you all the things that you never even asked me forAnd I never noticed but you changed more and more those were the sad yearsBut the price of success just kept goin' upAnd even when I had it all I didn't want to stopFor some reason it became importanted to me to stay on the topThose were the selfish yearsAnd then I stopped one minute of my busy dayI felt like something was missing and what I couldn't sayAnd when I realized that it was love that had died away and then came the bad years(Then came the bad years)
